Regular Outpatient Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - St. Joseph, LA.

Regular outpatient rehab is mostly a less costly choice to more intensive outpatient centers or inpatient rehab, and is the lowest intensity of formal drug or alcohol rehabilitation around in St. Joseph. Some clients are in treatment for their first time and have picked regular outpatient because that is all they can afford and time commitment and logistically because of school, work or other obligations. For some, regular outpatient is a "step-down" to service following treatment in a more intense outpatient program such as a partial hospitalization or inpatient facility.

Regular out-patient treatment services usually include group and individual counseling services occurring once maybe twice per week. Programs which offer a more diverse range of services may include psychotherapies (behavioral therapy) to help with relapse prevention and dual diagnosis services to help respond to co-occurring addiction and mental health issues. The length of time a person remains in recovery can change from client to client, and a client's progress can be judged every now and then and an extension of treatment can be recommended contingent upon these findings.

In some cases, a regular outpatient treatment program may be insufficient in intensity for a person who is dealing with a severe alcohol and drug problem and has not experienced treatment previously or has fallen off the wagon after prior outpatient treatment.
